Default Best Brand CV Shafts?

I need to replace a CV shaft on my GMT900 and wondering if any particular brand is better than the others. Does anyone offer a lifetime warranty on them?

Personally I do like napa axles, never had a problem with them on my car. Or with our 2 other cars, used 4 or 5 total with zero problems over the last 3 years.

The shop I work at uses napa for all trucks and cars aswell unless something thats dealer only. We rarely see problems with them.

I can't recall the warranty off hand, but I think depending on if it's a reman or a "new" axle the warranty is 1 year or 3 years. Might have to call or stop in to check that part out.
